fuse box
first not everyone likes to mess with the fuse panel, second a toggle switch on the remote gives u the ability to turn just the subs off and still have the radio play, second we used to do that so we had a quick kill switch to avoid johnny law, when there is no dedicated sub off switch on the radio, i personally find that to be a hassle. make sense.

Look at MTX's website and search for the thunderform enclosure under their products section that is meant for our trucks. Once found, open the .pdf manual and scan through it - it has the wire colors under the door sills for installation of their product, just use it for yours haha. I did this for my '06 F-250 and my '05 F-150 and their instructions are spot on.

switch
Hmmm..... I guess I am old school. I always used fuse taps and found a switched 12v signal in the fuse box. (Most of the time it was the radio fuse). The toggle switch seems a little dangerous and cumbersome in case you accidently leave the toggle switch on....click click goes your ignition the next morning.

on a factory radio that doesnt have a remote, u need to find a 12volt switched source right?. now if u run it off the fuse box, that is great, i did that back in the day, then your remote is hot whenever the ignition is on, when you turn your radio off and drive the amp is still on, wouldnt hurt anything, so to have better control add a toggle on remote, when the remote is from the radio it is on and off with the radio, then your hu has a sub control section that also has a sub on and off, so tha toggle isnt a must, but it is useful.
